Hey guys..sorry I haven't updated in so long...lol still working out the kinks with my new original story...

That hasn't been posted yet either...*shot* This is to sorta make up for it? I love you..?

...Enjoy!

Sasuke awoke the next morning after being reamed out by his older brother. He glanced at his alarm clock, noting that he had an hour before he was to go to school. Furrowing his eyebrows together, he played with the corner of the sheet on his bed, the duvet shielding him away from reality for then next few moments. Just to ruin the moment, his bladder was flashing warning signals. He wanted to lie in bed more- he knew once got up, he wasn't going back to bed. Unfortunately, he knew his body always won over his mind.

Forcing himself out of his bed, he stalked over to the bathroom relieving himself. Flicking on the light, eyes squinting as he glanced at himself in the mirror, he grabbed his toothbrush from the cup, using an ample amount of toothpaste on there, shoving the toothbrush in his mouth, walking out towards his closet, finding something to wear. He shuffled the liquid fluids in his mouth vigorously, finding some jeans and a hoodie, throwing it out on to his bed, going back to spit out his tooth paste and take a shower.

Toweling off, Sasuke lotioned, tugged his underwear on and clothes, pulling on his socks and Vans. Quickly, he checked his hair, taking some hair gel and running his hands through his hair, rustling it around. He had some time to get to school, glancing at Itachi on the way downstairs. The elder stood in front his brother, who sat on the stool in their breakfast nook, slowly sipping his coffee. Sasuke walked past, stopped, and walked backward to his brother in the kitchen. Raising an incredulous eyebrow, he frowned.

"What are you doing here?"

"Sipping coffee, why?" Itachi took another sip, as if proving his point, not even glancing at Sasuke.

"Aren't you supposed to be at work?"

"Aren't you supposed to be on your way to school?" Itachi locked eyes with Sasuke, who now pouts.

"You don't have to get snippy. Keep our panties outta your ass."

Itachi smirked, shaking his head, and getting up. Picking up a black coffee cup with a skull on it, he handed it to Sasuke. "Only because I was feeling generous today...and I have the day off." Hitting Sasuke light on the butt, causing him to jump slightly, he turns back towards his nook to continue reading. "Now, go. To. School."

Without a second word, Sasuke blinked, turning and heading to his bus stop early, shutting the door behind him.

-o-

"When she was just a girl"

"She expected the world"

"But it flew away from her reach"

"So she ran away in her sleep.."

Sasuke blinked sleepily as his bus jerked to a halt, almost slamming his face into the seat in front of him. He gathered his bag and made his way into school, hands stuffed into his pockets, coming to his locker. Pulling out his books, he nearly avoided a tackle from a purple blur.

Hinata smiled and did a little jig, shoving some paper in his face.

Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "You know I'm not awake. What is that?"

"A talent show contest. I want you to enter it. "

"...Doing what Hinata?" Sasuke slammed his locker and began to walk.

"Stuff. Art, your guitar playing...your piano and it's wonderful gracious singing.." She trailed behind saying slyly.

"Stop pimping me out with that."

Hinata pouted, both going toward the vending machine so Sasuke could get some orange juice. Sasuke bent to pick it up, turning around to face his one and only pet peeve.

Cheerleaders.

It's not that he didn't like the activity, he loved gymnastics as a kid, his mom was a cheerleader- but it's the girls that give it a bad reputation. But so, the cheerleaders came to him. Not even Sakura or Ino...no. The Korean ones.

"Hey! Uchiha! We heard what happened yesterday. Who said you could mess with us? Stay away from Kimmy. This is your only warning, got it?!" The girl standing in front seems to be the alpha female, going red in the face. She huffed, turning, muttering, "Hangmun."

Sasuke shrugged, opening his bottle, turning to look at Hinata.

"So about that talent show..." She smirked wickedly.

"Sasuke, do you have a girlfriend?" Itachi inquired, holding a box in his hand.

Sasuke looked up from his work, glasses tilted down. "I'm asexual,aniki."

"Doesn't mean you can't have a girlfriend." Itachi placed the box on his desk, waving his hand. "Some girl came buy dropping this off for you."

"Girl? I don't talk anyone but Hinata."

Sasuke opened it, seeing his gage on a cushion with a piece of paper. Quickly feeling his earlobe, he noticed he had a small hole where it was. "How the-" Sasuke read the note.

This came out when you hit the ground. I beat a guy up to find out where you live.
Sorry about Naruto.
-Kimmy.

Sasuke placed the gage back in his ear-although a bit forcefully- and placed the box on the table. He thought for a moment, thinking how in the world this gracious act from this person knew Naruto? And she must be a cheerleader since all the Korean's came near her.

Figuring he wasn't going to be able to focus any longer on his homework, he turned out the light, stripping into his boxers. He'll take a shower in the morning he decided. Tossing over and cuddling with his cat, Sasuke fell into a sleep like no other.

-o-

"Sasuke!"

"Hm?" Sasuke looked over his shoulder at the blonde.

"Are you gonna play today?" Naruto asked, bounding towards the some-what tall child.

"No. My guitar's in the shop. The strings needed repairing."

Naruto smiled and nodded, setting down two bowls of ice cream. "Your mom made it for us."

"Say, Naruto?" Sasuke looked over at him.

"Yeah Sasuke?" Naruto licked the bowl with the vanilla ice cream liquid inside.

"...What do you consider me?"

"What do you mean, Sasuke?"

Sasuke looked up with soft, solemn, watery eyes. He took Naruto's hand, taking his pinkie finger and holding it in his.

"I saw Itachi do this with momma once. I think it means something important. Like a promise?"

Sasuke blushed, taking Naruto's other hand.

"Promise me you'll always be my best friend?"

"...As long as your mine," Naruto smiled.

"Always." Sasuke smiled back.
